I\u2019m wondering, did the waters of the Mississippi River part as Holder flew over the Mississippi en route to Lambert-St. Louis International Airport?  Have the lions laid down with the lambs?  Are the Crips making peace with the Bloods?  Is it all better now because Eric Holder has touched down? <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94994\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushObamapool-rush-barack.jpg\"\/><BR\/>The attorney general, the top cop on the ground in St. Louis, and this has begot a debate in the media and at the White House on should or should not President Obama go?  And <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2014\/08\/barack-obama-ferguson-race-110165.html\">Politico<\/a> has a long story explaining why Obama can\u2019t go, and the main thrust of it is, there\u2019s nothing he can do.  Now, stop and think about that for a minute.  The first, the historical first African-American president cannot go to an area of racial strife because he couldn\u2019t do anything.  It would cause more problems than it would solve.  It\u2019s a fascinating piece, and I, of course, El Rushbo will eagerly share this story with you as the program unfolds. <\/line><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/215489-white-house-hasnt-ruled-out-sending-obama-to-ferguson\">TheHill.com<\/a> today says the White House is undecided on whether to send the president. By the way, this is a classic example, classic, folks, of the Limbaugh Theorem, the way this story is written.  Headline:  &#8220;White House Hasn\u00c2\u2019t Ruled Out Sending Obama to Ferguson.&#8221; See?  It isn\u2019t even his decision to go.  &#8220;The White House&#8221; is gonna decide whether or not the president\u2019s gonna go to Ferguson, Missouri.  And here\u2019s the first paragraph. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The White House has weighed sending President Obama to Ferguson, Mo., and has not ruled out a visit in upcoming weeks, according to sources familiar with the internal decision making. For now, the White House believes a trip by <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8568\">Obama to Ferguson<\/a> would do more harm than good, by diverting resources on the ground at a pivotal time for law enforcement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So you see, ladies and gentlemen, Obama\u2019s not calling the shots.  He doesn\u2019t even determine where he goes.  This is why Bush didn\u2019t go to New Orleans. The White House decided Bush wouldn\u2019t go.  The White House decided Bush was just gonna do a fly-by.  Bush got the blame \u2019cause Bush was the White House, but Obama &#8212; this is a perfect example, Limbaugh Theorem. <\/p>\n<p>What were we talking about yesterday? <\/p>\n<p>This Obama appearance of being disengaged and bored and having checked out from the job &#8212; not challenged, not interested in it anymore &#8212; is the greatest cover for political activism that you can imagine.  Here\u2019s a country that is on the march to a transformation unlike any we\u2019ve ever seen.  We are on the march for the biggest transformation to socialism\/whatever-ism that you want to call it.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s happening while the leader of that movement is supposedly detached and doesn\u2019t care and<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8580\"> has checked out and is on never-ending vacations<\/a>.  Is that not a brilliant piece of positioning or is that not a brilliant piece of positioning?  Here it is in TheHill.com: &#8220;White House Hasn\u2019t Ruled Out Sending Obama,&#8221; and on top of that, by the way&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the article making it plain that Obama is so out of control &#8212; meaning so far removed from power &#8212; that he doesn\u2019t even decide where he\u2019s gonna go! On top of that, the article is trying to let Obama off the hook for not going to Ferguson and continuing his vacation, \u2019cause it\u2019d be too much of a burden on the local authorities.  They\u2019ve already got their hands full dealing with the looters, you see. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8580\"><img id=\"eZObject_94983\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaWInkPIX.jpg\"\/><\/a>But that\u2019s funny. <\/p>\n<p>That excuse didn\u2019t fly when Bush didn\u2019t break off his vacation soon enough to visit New Orleans, as Snerdley pointed.  In fact, some of the very same people who ripped Bush are now trotting out the same excuse for Obama, like Claire McCaskill. That takes us to this idiotic&#8230; Well, ahem, ahem.  It takes us to the governor. (laughing) Is this guy trying to&#8230;? The people on the ground in Ferguson, they want the prosecutor &#8212; the district attorney, prosecuting attorney, Bob McCullough.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/stlouis.cbslocal.com\/2014\/08\/19\/st-louis-county-prosecutor-vows-to-handle-ferguson-case-fairly\/\">They want him to quit<\/a>.  They want him to recuse himself, he not qualified.  You know why?  Well, I think&#8230; Let\u2019s see. (interruption) Well, it doesn\u2019t matter that he\u2019s Democrat.  Oh.  &#8220;A police officer fatally shot&#8230;&#8221; No.  (muttering)  His police officer father was killed in the line of duty when he was a kid. And so because his father was a cop was killed in the line of duty, he can\u2019t be fair.  He was perfectly fine for this role up \u2019til this case. <\/p>\n<p>Bob McCullough was perfectly fine as a prosecuting attorney.  Now, all of a sudden, the fact that his dad was a cop killed in the line of duty means he cannot be fair.  Of course, it\u2019s not about &#8220;fairness;&#8221; it means he cannot find for the civil rights movement.  That\u2019s what it is. I mean, folks, you have to admit now, with everything going on. You know what this is all about. You know where this is gonna end up.  (interruption)  No&#8230; (interruption) <\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t&#8230; (interruption)  The fact that he\u2019s a Democrat is not enough here.  It\u2019s not enough, and it may not be enough for Governor Nixon.  I mean, why do you send Holder in there?  The whole point of sending Holder in there is to say that none of the locals know what the hell they\u2019re doing.  The whole point of sending Eric Holder in there is that this town, Ferguson in St. Louis, can\u2019t possibly do what the right thing is here. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94987\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaHolderLaughPIX.jpg\"\/><BR\/>They don\u2019t know.  &#8220;Everybody there\u2019s a buffoon.  Everybody there is an idiot. Everybody there doesn\u2019t have the slightest idea how to do their jobs.  We gotta send the big people in. We gotta send the adults in.&#8221;  Why would you send Holder?  I mean, create the impression the locals can\u2019t handle it; the federal government is where you always have to go to get justice, to get the right thing, to get fairness, to get solution, to get closure, whatever<\/line><\/p>\n<p>The federal government is the only place you can go.  So many messages are behind sending Eric Holder in there.  What\u2019s he gonna do?  Eric Holder is gonna be on the scene to make sure that no one\u2019s civil rights have been violated.  He\u2019s gonna go in and make sure that everybody\u2019s protected, that everybody\u2019s civil rights are protected &#8212; except for some people\u2019s civil rights who don\u2019t count anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of civil rights, the governor, Jay Nixon, has called for &#8220;the vigorous prosecution&#8221; of Darren Wilson.  He didn\u2019t mention him by name, but who else could be prosecuted?  You know he\u2019s not talking about the looters. (interruption) That\u2019s the point.  He has already proclaimed him guilty.  Why do you think Nixon&#8230;? Nixon\u2019s not stupid. I don\u2019t care how he looks, he\u2019s not stupid.  This is pure pandering. <\/p>\n<p>This is pure&#8230; (interruption)<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94988\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/McCaskill_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Did I say &#8220;how he looks&#8221;?  I meant to say &#8220;how it looks.&#8221;  No matter how&#8230; He\u2019s not stupid.  This is pure pandering.  Claire McCaskill! They\u2019re all pandering to the black vote. They\u2019re all pandering to the civil rights coalition.  This call for vigorous prosecution is nothing more than to build a bridge with the civil rights movement, the black community in Ferguson and everywhere else throughout the state. Over in Kansas City, too.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s all this is.  That\u2019s what they\u2019re saying.  They want this cop prosecuted.  They want him found guilty yesterday.  So here comes the governor saying, &#8220;Yep, yep! I agree.&#8221;  He doesn\u2019t say, &#8220;I agree with you,&#8221; but he says it, in a sense, by calling for a vigorous prosecution.  There haven\u2019t even been any charges yet!  Talking about grand juries. You know what we learned?  The grand jury that indicted Rick Perry had a Democrat Party activist on it.<\/p>\n<p>We know that because she\u2019s out there bragging about it. <\/p>\n<p>A female Democrat Party activist and party member was on the grand jury that indicted Rick Perry, and she\u2019s out singing a sweet song and just bragging about it, how cool it is.  So you can see the ducks are being lined up here.  Eric Holder flies in, the waters of the Mississippi part, the plane lands. The cameras are there to document the giant 757 carrying the attorney general because nobody locally can handle this. <\/p>\n<p>Nobody locally can keep the lid on, nobody locally can figure out how to handle this, and there\u2019s nobody locally that can put their fist down and say, &#8220;This is how it\u2019s gonna be!&#8221;  So the attorney general will go in there and say, &#8220;This is how it\u2019s gonna be! You, guilty.  You, guilty.  You&#8230;&#8221; No.  There\u2019s only one guilty person.  &#8220;You, innocent.  You, innocent.&#8221;  There\u2019s only one person guilty here and it\u2019s gonna be the cop. <\/p>\n<p>If they can get rid of McCullough, he\u2019ll be guilty by association, the DA.  But it\u2019s all about&#8230; Meanwhile, the White House is still trying to figure out whether or not to &#8220;send&#8221; Obama. (laughing) This is just unreal.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You know, I would think, ladies and gentlemen, that Obama has everything we need to stop what\u2019s going on in St. Louis.  Captain Ron Johnson, highway patrol, last Thursday he went in there. He was given control of the situation by the governor, Jay Nixon, because Nixon said the county cops were just bungling everything, bunch of Inspector Clouseau\u2019s. <\/p>\n<p>So he pulls them off the case, puts highway patrol on it, the state cops, and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8608\">Ron Johnson goes in there and looks really good<\/a>. He marches with the protesters and everything is looking fine.  Thursday night last week this guy\u2019s the next governor of Missouri, and then Friday, the looting begins, and Captain Johnson ordered the cops to let it happen, because it would be less tension, feel less provocative, less contentious if the cops just let the looters loot, take what they want, get it out of their system.  And with that there went his chance at the gubernatorial shot. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94989\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushLimbaughTheoremObamaNoICant.jpg\"\/><BR\/>He\u2019ll still get a reality show, probably, but his chance at the governorship is blown in one day. So now they gotta send Holder in there, \u2019cause nobody in St. Louis, the governor, the DA, the local cops, keystone, can\u2019t do anything right. And Obama can\u2019t even go. And what is Obama, if not the greatest orator in the world?  The guy is the most persuasive speaker, what Harry Reid said, and he said, &#8220;Yeah, Harry, it\u2019s a gift.&#8221;  If there\u2019s one guy who could talk sense to these people, make \u2019em get peaceful, it\u2019s Obama.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You notice how often Obama says he\u2019s powerless to do anything, even stop the rioting in Ferguson.  Powerless to do anything about Benghazi.  He\u2019s just powerless to do anything.  He told the Hispanic community (paraphrasing), &#8220;Hey, look, I can\u2019t just do amnesty.  I\u2019m just the president, there\u2019s this thing called the Constitution. I can\u2019t do it myself.  I\u2019d like to, but I just can\u2019t.&#8221;  He loves telling people, and he loves having it said about him, how powerless he is. <\/p>\n<p>This is the guy who had as his campaign slogan, &#8220;Yes, we can.&#8221;  Now his new slogan is, &#8220;No, I can\u2019t,&#8221; while he goes out and does everything he does.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, I mentioned in the opening hour of the program that Politico has a story excusing the fact that Obama is not going to St. Louis.  In fact, he can\u2019t go there, and we had this story. I mean, this is just so perfect for the illustration of the Limbaugh Theorem.  There\u2019s a story from, I think, what did I say? It was TheHill.com?  He can\u2019t go! &#8220;The White House&#8221; is not letting Obama go.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The White House&#8221; hasn\u2019t decided yet whether Obama is gonna go to.  See, he\u2019s not even in charge of where he goes and when he goes.  He\u2019s not in charge of the White House, meaning not Obama.  I mean, it was classic.  But the Politico piece: &#8220;Why Obama Can\u2019t Go There.&#8221;  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2014\/08\/barack-obama-ferguson-race-110165.html\">This actually written by Todd Purdum<\/a>.  Does the name ring a bell?  Tom Purdum.  Todd Purdum. (interruption)<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, Mr. Dee Dee Myers. He used to work for the New York Times and is now married to Dee Dee Myers, who worked in the Clinton administration.  She was the first White House press secretary for Clinton. &#8220;It\u2019s a paradox of Barack Obama\u2019s presidency: The first African-American to run the country finds himself in the tensest racial confrontation of his tenure but is constrained from addressing the nation\u2019s original sin in anything but the loftiest, most dispassionate terms.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_95002\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaClapping2_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Now, that paragraph, in terms of mythmaking, is a doozy. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>Now what\u2019s going on in Ferguson can remind everybody of America\u2019s original sin.  Yes siree bob! Slavery is now on the table. Slavery is actually what was going on in Ferguson. Slavery is what has continued to take place in America.  So here he is: &#8220;The first African-American to run the country &#8230; is constrained from addressing the nation\u2019s original sin in anything but the loftiest, most dispassionate terms.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Then Purdum goes on to describe Obama\u2019s statement as being &#8220;anodyne,&#8221; meaning the least provocative it could be.  He quotes Obama saying, &#8220;We\u2019ve made extraordinary progress &#8230; but we have not made enough progress.&#8221; Purdum says, &#8220;That observation is so obvious as to be anodyne, but Obama has good reason to confine himself to Joe Friday generalities in the face of the discordant street demonstrations, belligerent police tactics and unfinished official investigation in Ferguson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Belligerent police tactics! <\/p>\n<p>What is that in reference to?  Last Friday night, the police backed off and let the looting occur.  Yeah, they\u2019ve thrown some tear gas in there, and, yeah, they\u2019ve appeared to be militarized. But that\u2019s only because the federal government militarized police departments with leftover items and equipment from the Pentagon!  I can\u2019t&#8230; Look, folks, I\u2019m sorry to keep hammering this, but it\u2019s crucial. <\/p>\n<p>I cannot get over how what a fraudulent news story this is. There\u2019s no reason for wall-to-wall coverage like this.  It is just stunning to me.  It\u2019s all based on a myth.  Blacks are killed in this country by blacks.  That\u2019s what\u2019s common.  That is what happens way too much.  That is something that these people involved in this myth do not even want raised! They don\u2019t want it brought up. <\/p>\n<p>Weekend death and wounded statistics from Chicago are so high every weekend that they have ceased being news.  It\u2019s become so common to get up on Monday and read the dramatic numbers of deaths and people wounded by gunfire in Chicago every weekend that people don\u2019t even think about it anymore, which is my point.  There\u2019s no news there.  There\u2019s no story.  I mean, it\u2019s so common they don\u2019t do any stand-up news reports.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t worry about all the black kids dying in Chicago.  If you\u2019re really worried about African-American death, I mean, there are places you can go to highlight it, put it on the news, and portray it as a very, very bad problem.  But that will not further either the Democrat Party agenda, it will not further the race industry agenda, and it will not further the civil rights coalition agenda, and therefore it will not further the myth. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s just mind-boggling, when you stop to think about this. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_95003\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/obamaYawnSmall_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>So back to, &#8220;Why Obama Can\u2019t Go There &#8212; Ever since he first judged that the Cambridge, Massachusetts, police had &#8216;acted stupidly\u2019 in 2009 by arresting [&#8220;Skip&#8221; Gates] in his own doorway, Obama\u2019s most candid comments on race have been just as likely to inflame a significant segment of public opinion as to soothe it.  Last year, when Obama made the indisputable observation that Trayvon Martin &#8230; &#8216;could have been me 35 years ago,\u2019 many conservatives reacted with outrage (whether real or politically inspired).&#8221;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>You see?<\/p>\n<p>Whenever the myth is in full swing, anybody calling it out is illegitimate. (translated) &#8220;It\u2019s not real criticism.  That\u2019s just the right wing!  They\u2019re just trying to advance policy.  They\u2019re just being political!&#8221;  See? There\u2019s no &#8220;politics&#8221; in this, you see.  There\u2019s no politics in this myth.  The only politics is people like me criticizing it.  Yeah.  But there\u2019s no politics going on here &#8212; and, of course, it\u2019s all political. <\/p>\n<p>Everything about this story in Ferguson is political. Everything. <\/p>\n<p>The political far outweighs the racial in this story. <\/p>\n<p>But, of course, those two are actually aligned and side by side in the Democrat Party. <\/p>\n<p>So Mr. Purdum writes, &#8220;So there is now little practical percentage for Obama in doing anything but balancing his assertion that &#8216;in many communities, too many young men of color are left behind and seen only as objects of fear,\u2019 as he did Monday with an even-handed warning that giving in to anger &#8216;by looting or carrying guns and even attacking the police only serves to raise tension and stir chaos.'&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>So Purdum is saying (translated), &#8220;See, this guy, he can\u2019t say anything! He\u2019s trying to please both sides. He\u2019s trying to satisfy people on both sides and get out of there without causing any controversy and without getting in any trouble.&#8221; So, you see, the analysts who tell us that Obama can\u2019t go do so strictly on the basis of political analysis. <\/p>\n<p>Will it hurt Obama or will it help Obama?  And if it cannot help Obama, then he certainly has no reason to go.  Really?  Well, if the myth were true, and if a white cop were shooting innocent black kids routinely, do you think Obama would go to one of the locales?  If the myth were true, if white cops every week were shooting innocent black kids, do you think Obama would go to one of those things?  Do you think Obama would do something about it?  Do you think Obama would speak up?  Do you think he would go instead of sending Holder? <\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons I\u2019m telling you he doesn\u2019t go is \u2019cause this is not common.  But here it is right here in Politico.  The main reason he\u2019s not going is because the political calculation is, he can\u2019t help himself.  Stop and think about that, though.  Here we have the greatest orator ever in the White House. I mean, the greatest speaker ever, the most powerful and the most influential. He\u2019s just the best. He told Harry Reid he just has a gift.  Here we have a man who was going to end these things in America. It was going to be an end to all this racial partisanship and strife. <\/p>\n<p>We have the first black president who was elected, I maintain, by a large number of people hoping that this kind of stuff would never again happen. I know for a fact that there were a lot of white people that voted for Obama really thinking and hoping that it would mean, their vote, that if the black people of America could see that white America would elect a black president, that they would finally see that there is no racism and there\u2019s no slavery and there\u2019s no bigotry, this stuff needs to stop.  You know as well as I do that a lot of people voted for Obama with that dream. <\/p>\n<p>Speaking of dreams.  You know that the Republican Party, the white majority has been on defense for I don\u2019t know how long about this, trying to prove they\u2019re not racist and that they\u2019re not sexist and that they\u2019re not bigots and that they\u2019re not mean-spirited and that they\u2019re not homophobes and that they\u2019re not this or that.  Practically everything the Republican Party and the white majority do in this country is a defensive posture trying to say, &#8220;No, we\u2019re not! No, we\u2019re not! No, we\u2019re not!&#8221;  And it was in that framework and frame of mind I think that a lot of white people voted for Obama, to show everyone, &#8220;No, we\u2019re not what you say we are. We\u2019re not racist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They thought that by voting and then by saying so and by openly, proudly, publicly supporting Obama, that they could display for the world that they were not racist, could finally convince the Al Sharptons and the Jesse Jacksons and the Trayvon Martins and their families, finally convince them for once and for all, don\u2019t you see, we are not racists. We don\u2019t hate you. We\u2019re not afraid of you.  That\u2019s what was behind the vote, a desire to send that message.  And now the truth is you can send that message all day, you can send that message all day, every day for a year, and it will be thrown right back at you.  And the establishment of this myth is evidence of that. <\/p>\n<p>I mean, if electing the first African-American president was in part to end racism or to show that a majority of white people are not racist and they\u2019re not bigots and all that, that\u2019s what the purpose was, and yet the events keep happening, and maybe even some would say, get worse.  You have an event like this happen, purely mythical in its scope, and now we got president &#8212; stories left and right, the president cannot go, the first African-American president can\u2019t win by going in to talk about this.  It would cause more problems than he could solve.  He just can\u2019t come out on this one side or the other.  But this is the guy who was the recipient of all of those votes which were intended to say, &#8220;We\u2019re not, we don\u2019t.  Stop hating us.  Stop judging us.  Stop calling us racist.  Stop calling us bigots.  We\u2019re not.  Look.  We voted for the first African-American presidential candidate, and we helped elect him.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>And those people today, six years later, are still being told they\u2019re racist, still being told they\u2019re bigots, still being told that they support white cops killing black kids.  Nothing\u2019s changed.  In fact, as I say, it may have even gotten worse.  So as Todd Purdum writes:  &#8220;So it has fallen to an African-American man with a much smaller megaphone &#8212; Missouri Highway Patrol Captain Ron Johnson &#8212; to give personal voice to the feelings of so many black parents at the shooting of yet another unarmed black teenager.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>See?  The myth, the shooting of yet another unarmed black teenager.  I\u2019m not denying that it happens, but it doesn\u2019t happen regularly, and the vast majority of black deaths in this country are the result of black perpetrators, and those are the stats.  They don\u2019t lie.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  By the way, folks, it\u2019s not just President Obama who\u2019s not going in there.  Mrs. Clinton isn\u2019t anywhere near.  You know, Al Sharpton is asking for Hillary to come in. Even some people have asked for Jeb Bush to show up and talk about this, but there\u2019s a Politico story that references how few Democrats have answered the call or spoken up much on this.  You\u2019ve got people on MSNBC demanding to the president, &#8220;Get on a plane! These are your people!&#8221;  He stays in Martha\u2019s Vineyard. <\/p>\n<p>See, the politics just isn\u2019t right.  There\u2019s something not right about the politics for the national Democrats to get involved. There\u2019s something about this that just isn\u2019t right and the reason it isn\u2019t right is \u2019cause it\u2019s a myth.  It\u2019s not working.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: In Ferguson, Missouri, the attorney general\u2019s touched down, ladies and gentlemen, and the news networks were on scene at the St. Louis airport to show Eric Holder arriving, touching down at the airport in a giant United States government Boeing 757.
